Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or the song.
An: Hey everybody, this is my first shot at a songfic, so bear with me. Please R&R! This happens after Kagome's Voice and Kikyo's Kiss. Even though something else happens. I just love that episode and I wish this would happen! And Sango is there. Well, okay, so this isn't exactly true to the series, I just wanted to write something!
Frozen by Madonna
Kagome watched Inuyasha out of the corners of her eyes as he slurped up a cup of ramen. Miroku and Sango were on the other side of the fire, arguing about something or other, and Shippo was playing with an acorn.
The night was nippy, and a frigid wind was tossing the leaves on the trees. The sparkling fire that Kagome had built crackled and flung sparks and ashes into the air. Though it was warm by the fire, inside Kagome was frozen. She had seen Kikyo and Inuyasha kiss, and she was angry... Wasn't she? But the anger was only jealousy. She was hurt, truly hurt, and Inuyasha wasn't helping.
"Inuyasha," Kagome whispered, her eyes quivering with tears. She grasped her self-control, refusing to let Inuyasha see her cry.
Inuyasha had stopped eating and now he was sitting in a tree, looking out over the fields. His eyes were distant and his expression was blank.
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
Kagome got up and walked to the base of the tree. Her heart hurt so much she didn't even want to be angry. She looked up at Inuyasha and called out to him.
"What do you want, woman?" Inuyasha snapped. He looked down, his golden eyes flashing.
"I want to talk to you, Inuyasha..."
"You ARE talking to me," Inuyasha told her with a mocking tone in his voice.
"You know what I mean!" Kagome said, hurt laced in her voice. She saw Inuyasha's expression flicker, but nothing happened.
"If it's about Kikyo, forget it!" Inuyasha crossed his arms and looked away.
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open
Kagome blinked. "FINE! Be that way! I'm going home!" She began to throw stuff into her bag and she ran off towards the well with her bike.
"Kagome, where are you going?" Shippo called, starting to run after her.
"I need to go away for a little bit," Kagome called over her shoulder, almost tripping over a root.
Miroku and Sango watched her silently. "It's a shame Inuyasha can't just talk to her like a civilized person," Sango commented more to herself than to Miroku.
"Civilized? Men don't know such a thing. I should know. Sango, would you care to-?" Miroku was cut off by Sango whacking him over the head.
Kagome jumped into the well and was soon standing just outside the shrine. She released her hold on herself and dropped to her knees, sobbing.
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
Kagome's mind snapped to Kikyo. Kikyo really was who Inuyasha loved, wasn't she? But all those times... Just a few days ago Inuyasha had hugged her when she had come home, hadn't he? Kagome sobbed harder. Just because he had a longer past with that woman didn't mean... Kagome's thoughts trailed off as she curled up into a ball on the ground and sobbed.
'Why am I reacting so badly? I love Inuyasha, but can't I understand that I'll never have him?' Kagome asked herself. 'I just wish he would feel the same way a little bit... Oh how I miss him after just a few minutes.' Kagome felt her heart beating in the strained way that one's heart beats when one wants something.
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken
Suddenly there was a warm hand on Kagome's shoulder. She tried to shrug it off but it was clenched tightly.
"What?" Kagome asked in a shuddery voice, trying to wipe some of her tears away.
The person forced her to sit up and uncurl. Kagome kept her wet eyes shut.
"Let me be," Kagome sobbed. She felt a cold nail on her cheek and she opened her eyes slightly. She gasped and met golden eyes. Inuyasha wiped away her tears. Kagome jerked away. "Have you come to rub it in?"
Inuyasha blinked at her, his expression surprisingly gentle. "Kagome... I don't want to lose you."
Kagome took a sharp breath. "Inuyasha, don't make promises that you cannot keep." Inuyasha lunged at her and she closed her eyes in a wince. Instead she felt warm arms wrap around her.
"Kagome, I realize now that Kikyo only wants to kill me. I try to convince her that it was only Naraku, that it wasn't my fault, it wasn't hers. But she won't listen to me. She doesn't trust me. I cannot love somebody who doesn't trust me. Kagome, do you trust me?"
What was he trying to say? Was he trying to say that he loved her? Kagome studied his eyes. There wasn't a sign of a lie. "I do trust you, yes. I trust you with my life."
"Do you love me?" Inuyasha asked with a lot of difficulty. He stumbled over the words, but he finally blurted them out.
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
Kagome stared at him and thought for a moment. "Yes, Inuyasha. Yes, I love you."
Inuyasha pulled away. "Good, now help me find the shards."
"WHAT?" Kagome growled.
"You heard me, come back to fuedal Japan and help me find the shards! You're the one who broke the goddamn jewel anyway!" Inuyasha began to drag her back to the well.
"SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT!"
A loud crash echoed throughout the woods.
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
